Proverbs
7:22-27
He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth
to the slaughter,
or as a fool
to the correction of the stocks;
Till a dart strike through his liver; as a
bird hasteth to the snare,
and knoweth
not that it is for his life.
Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children,
and attend to the words of my mouth.
Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go
not astray in her paths.
For she hath cast down many wounded:
yea, many strong men have been slain by her.
Her house is the way to hell, going down to
the chambers of death.
The
world’s esteem of the provocative, seductive woman is the antithesis of God’s
view of her. People are wounded from
sexual sin and strong men are actually slain by such encounters. Sexual promiscuity is the way to hell. May we as Christian women reject all such
suggestions to model ourselves after this world. “In like manner also, that women adorn
themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with
broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women
professing godliness) with good works. (1 Tim 2:9‑10)
